Pretty neat website, I'll have to say :) Props for linking to github for the dev'ing & project/feature requests :)

Hehe, boo for the discussion platform though :D Not to mi liking at all, prefer SMF or such over that one.. hands down ;) Have seen a couple of forums migrate to that, and have had to stop using them :I (privacy reasons + tracker/ad/script blockers break the functionalities)
